🇦🇪 UAE NATIONALS ONLY Strategy & Project Lead – AI Transformation

Company: NextMatch AI

Location: Dubai or Abu Dhabi (Executive Hybrid)

Employment Type: Full-time (Internal)

Package: Premium Executive Salary + Performance Incentives (Nafis-ready)


The Opportunity of a Decade

NextMatch AI is not just another tech company; we are the engine behind the UAE’s next leap in employment technology. With teams in London, Toronto, and Riyadh, we are global, but our heart is in the Emirates.

We are opening one exclusive position for a high-caliber Emirati professional to lead our most critical AI initiatives. This isn't a "back-office" role; this is a seat at the table where the future of the UAE’s digital economy is being written.


Why This Role is Different

  • Exclusive Visibility: You will be the face of NextMatch AI within the UAE’s government and enterprise ecosystem.
  • Zero Stagnation: While others are "managing" projects, you will be architecting them. From API integrations with Giga-projects to AI platform rollouts, you are the bridge between local vision and global execution.
  • Limited Entry: We are looking for one standout leader. Once this window closes, the opportunity to join at this foundational level will not return.


What You Will Command

  • Strategic Delivery: Lead high-stakes AI rollouts that impact thousands of careers across the GCC.
  • Global-Local Bridge: Work directly with our engineering hubs in Toronto and London to ensure our AI is built with the UAE’s unique cultural and economic needs in mind.
  • Roadblock Removal: Use your expertise and local insight to navigate complex integrations and drive rapid growth.
  • Legacy Building: Help establish the PMO (Project Management Office) frameworks that will define our company for the next decade.


Are You the One?

We are looking for a specific profile:

  • UAE National (Family Book holder): This is a dedicated role for local talent.
  • Experience: 3–7 years of delivering high-impact projects (Tech, Consulting, or Digital Transformation).
  • The "NextMatch" Mindset: You don't just follow a plan; you improve it. You are comfortable in the fast-paced world of AI and SaaS.
  • Communication: Fluent in English and Arabic, with the presence to present to C-suite executives.
  • Tooling: Familiarity with Jira, Monday.com, or similar "future-of-work" tools.


The Rewards

  • Market-Leading Salary: Designed for top-tier Emirati talent.
  • Fast-Track Growth: Direct path to Director of Operations or Head of Middle East Expansion.
  • Hybrid Freedom: True flexibility between our UAE hubs and remote work.
  • Global Impact: Represent the UAE in an international AI firm scaling globally.
